Amenities at the Hyatt?

[Ry]

Is there good wifi at the Hyatt?  Does it go crash-crashy at the conventions or is it pretty steady?

[Sinkuu]

hadn't really seen much as far as wifi at the hyatt. there are a couple of public terminals over by where the RPGA usually runs, and if you're there before the weekend, there's a small cafeteria that offers wifi.

other than that, you're left with pay wired service in the room.

I just spoke to the desk about the wi-fi. It *is* available in the lobby, if you purchase the connection for your room. The connection inside the conference rooms "might be unreliable or weak" unless the convention purchases a separate package to allow wireless in the various conference rooms. The desk couldn't give me a price, or any more details. Hopefully Vinny can arrange something with the facilities people.

Unfortunately the price for wifi is just way to expensive so we will not being going with that option.

carl,

Did you happen to ask what the cost of wi-fi is?

carl,

No. Avie said it was in the neighborhood of $3000 to cover all the conference rooms.

I should have been more clear, I was interested in what it would cost for a single room.

One conference room? I didn't ask. I figured that was Vinny's province.

The desk said if you paid the $10 per day for your room, you "might" get some reception in the conference rooms, but you definitely would get reception in the lobby. Again, I didn't ask whether that included hallways, etc. Sorry.

[Mark]

Hmm... My ability to communicate effectively seems to be at an all time low 

I did mean how much it would cost for a guest room, not a conference room. I see that you said it is $10 per day so you actually did answer the question I was really trying to answer.

I'd really like to have access in the ballroom where wargaming will be but that doesn't seem likely does it? Oh well, I may still purchase it since there always seems to be a need to look up some rule or download some form for games.

Thanks,

Mark

I just checked with the hotel and was told the the fee is $11.95 per 24 hours and is available throughout the hotel but not in the meeting rooms.

$10 or $11.95, I'm still considering it.

Mark

[Sinkuu]

$3k.

OUCH.

so much for that hope, eventually....

I spoke to the the Hyatt people about it, after the issues that EG had with the hotel internet.

I was quoted $500 for 1 conference room (Headquarters B) for the weekend.
